Right. I'd like to be know which piece of the network is having
trouble. It could be the NIC in either the frontend or backend or the
router. I don't know much about diagnosing networking problems. Can
anyone point me to some tools or commands to use to help pinpoint
network problems like this?
I thought from my investigations that a 100Mb network could handle 2
HDHR recordings plus streaming to a frontend. Do others have this
setup working?
Eventually moving to Gig and/or moving the HDHR to its own NIC is
probably a good idea but I'd like to make sure I understand the
bottleneck before I throw hardware at it.
